Improviser and noise-maker from Italy, Paolo Gàiba Riva likes to dig deep and explore both extremes of the sound spectrum, using everything from electronics, field recordings or even a clarinet.
Since 2012 he found necessary to dig deeply into the raw, sincere and without compromise parts of what people call “(non-)music”, researching the clash, the dynamic and the static state of the sounds. This exploration turned out to be the most honest way for him to cope with this mad world.
His general aim is to wake up the listeners’ awareness and focus on the moment.

Each performance is a deep sonic experience for the listener, balancing from the annoying to the pleasant, according to how the listener accepts it.
